A quick recap of the week
Here are a few highlights from the past week on AOA:
+ Jessica asked for thoughts on renting vs. buying in the Capital Region.
+ A bunch of the free summer concert series on one combined schedule.
+ Emily asked for location suggestions for her company picnic.
+ With air conditioner season here, how New York State generates electricity.
+ Anonymous asked about finding a good allergist.
+ What was up in the Neighborhood this week: the Albany Bear, nature, the Vermont City Marathon, a moment with horses, the inner lumberjack, a photo contest, Yankee Stadium, Rare Form Brewing, fast casual, friday night cookout, Natural Way Cafe, the Hudson Berkshire Wine and Food Festival, breakfast sandwiches, things uncontrollable, and shinney.
+ The red light camera conversation in Albany got a new tune.
+ The developers behind the E23 casino proposal in Albany decided to dump it in favor of a spot in Rensselaer -- a few thoughts about that, and the casino process generally.
+ Allison put some numbers -- and few different ideas -- to the question of how to get a supermarket in downtown Albany. It prompted a lot of discussion.
+ An odd bit of local history.
+ And Lauren shared "the closest thing in this area to a real beach."
Here's the whole week all lined up.
Thanks to everyone who posted a comment or shared an idea or photo this week!
Say Something!
We'd really like you to take part in the conversation here at All Over Albany. But we do have a few rules here. Don't worry, they're easy. The first: be kind. The second: treat everyone else with the same respect you'd like to see in return. Cool? Great, post away. Comments are moderated so it might take a little while for your comment to show up. Thanks for being patient.
